Leviticus 25:29-43
29And if any oneH376 sellH4376 a dwelling-house in a walledH2346 cityH5892, then he shall have the rightH1353 of redemptionH1353 up to the end of the yearH8141 of the saleH4465 thereof; for a full yearH8141 shall he have the rightH1353 of redemptionH1353.
30But if it be not redeemedH1350 until a whole yearH8141 is completeH4390, then the houseH1004 that is in the walledH2346 cityH5892 shall be establishedH6965 for ever to him that boughtH7069 it, throughout his generationsH1755: it shall not goH3318 out in the jubileeH3104.
31But the housesH1004 in villages that have no wallH2346 roundH5439 about them shall beH1961 reckonedH2803 as the fieldsH7704 of the country: they may beH1961 redeemed, and they shall goH3318 out in the jubileeH3104.
32But as to the citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881, the housesH1004 in the citiesH5892 of their possessionH272, the LevitesH3881 shall have a perpetual rightH1353 of redemptionH1353.
33And if any oneH4480 redeemH1350 from oneH4480 of the LevitesH3881, then the houseH1004 that was sold, in the cityH5892 of his possessionH272, shall goH3318 out in the jubileeH3104; for the housesH1004 of the citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881 are their possessionH272 among the children of IsraelH3478.
34And the fieldH7704 of the suburbs of their citiesH5892 shall not be soldH4376; for it is their perpetual possessionH272.
35And if thy brotherH251 grow poor, and he be fallen into decay beside thee, then thou shalt relieve him, [be he] stranger or sojourner, that he may liveH2421 beside thee.
36Thou shalt takeH3947 no usury nor increase of him; and thou shalt fearH3372 thy 1GodH430; that thy brotherH251 may liveH2421 beside thee.
37Thy moneyH3701 shalt thou not giveH5414 him upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.
38I am Jehovah your 2GodH430, who broughtH3318 you forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, to giveH5414 you the landH776 of CanaanH3667, to beH1961 your 3GodH430.
39And if thy brotherH251 grow poor beside thee, and be soldH4376 unto thee, thou shalt not compel him to serveH5647 as a bondservant:
40as a hired servant, as a sojourner, shall he beH1961 with thee; until the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104 shall he serveH5647 thee.
41Then shall he depart from thee, he and his children with him, and shall returnH7725 unto his ownH272 familyH4940, and unto the possessionH272 of his fathersH1 shall he returnH7725.
42For they are my bondmen, whom I broughtH3318 forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714: they shall not be soldH4376 as [men] sellH4376 bondmen.
43Thou shalt not ruleH7287 over him with rigour; and thou shalt fearH3372 thy 4GodH430.
